I strongly suspect (ie, believe to the 99.999999999999999999999% level) that the reason it has not been posted is that it remains buggy, possibly even buggier than 5.0. This ought to be clear from the acknowleged existence of 5.1.1 currently under development. While I freely admit the attraction of getting the latest and greatest version, 5.1 may not count as 'greatest'. Having it could be reminiscent of the old picture of the geeks running down the streets waving their copies of [item x] shouting "I've got the new bugs! I've got the new bugs!" Furthermore, continued growsing about this is simply not going to change things -- right or wrong, this is precisely how Emagic operates. cheers, Bill
